Tamil Nadu: Manufacturers raise concerns over central govt’s announcement on solar pumps
Coimbatore: Pump manufacturers from the city say they have little to cheer about the announcement in Union Budget that the central government would provide funds to 20 lakh farmers to set up solar pumps.
Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman had announced in the Union Budget on February 1 that the Centre, under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha Utthan Mahabhiyan (PM Kusum) scheme, would provide funds to 20 lakh farmers to set up stand-alone solar pumps.
